There is only one way to turn off ESP in Volkswagen. Below is a detailed introduction about Volkswagen: 1. Overview: Volkswagen (German: Volkswagen) is an automobile manufacturing company headquartered in Wolfsburg, Germany, and is the core enterprise of the Volkswagen Group, one of the world's four major automobile manufacturers. "Volks" in German means "people," and "Wagen" means "car," so the full name translates to "people's car," often abbreviated as "VW." 2. Models: Main models include Volkswagen Polo-GTI, Volkswagen Golf, Volkswagen EOS, Volkswagen CC, Volkswagen Passat, Volkswagen Phaeton, Volkswagen Audi, Volkswagen Lavida, Volkswagen Sagitar, etc.
I've been driving a Volkswagen for a while, and turning off the ESP is actually quite common. Most Volkswagen models like the Tiguan or Golf have a dedicated button, usually near the steering wheel, labeled ESP OFF. Just press it once to turn it off, and a warning light will illuminate on the dashboard as a reminder. However, if your car has certain configurations, such as a driving mode selector knob, switching to modes like Snow or Off-Road will automatically deactivate the ESP, saving you the trouble of pressing the button. Turning off the ESP can be useful in specific situations, such as when the car is stuck in mud or icy conditions, as it allows better traction by preventing wheel spin. That said, it's not advisable to keep it off during regular driving, especially in urban or highway conditions, as the ESP helps prevent loss of control or rollovers. I once tried turning it off on a muddy road, and the car did become more agile, but I had to be extra cautious about the risk of skidding during turns. Remember to always park and check the manual to confirm the button's location before operating, ensuring safety comes first.
